$\text{Find the distance from one corner to the other}\\\\\text{In this question, we would use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length}\\\text{between corners}\\\\\text{Pythagorean theorem:}\\\\a^2+b^2=c^2\\\\\text{We are trying to find c}\\\\\text{Plug in and solve:}\\\\7^2+6^2=c^2\\\\49+36=c^2\\\\85=c^2\\\\\text{Square root}\\\\\sqrt{85}=\sqrt{c^2}\\\\\sqrt{85}=c\\\\\text{In decimal form, it's: 9.219544}\\\\\text{Round to the nearest tenths place}\\\\\boxed{9.2\,\, feet}$

The mathematics department of a college has 6 male professors, 9 female professors, 5 male teaching assistants, and 6 female tea

Hitman42 [59]

Given:

6 male professores

9 female professores

5 male teaching assistants

6 female teaching assistants

Sol:.

$N(A\text{ or B)=N(A)+N(B)-N(A and B)}$

N (professors)

$\begin{gathered} =6+9 \\ =15 \end{gathered}$

N(Male)

$\begin{gathered} =6+5 \\ =11 \end{gathered}$

N(professors and male)

$=6$

N(professors OR male) = N(professors) + N(males) -N(professor OR male)

$\begin{gathered} N(\text{ Professors OR male)=15+11-6} \\ =20 \end{gathered}$

N(People to choose from)

$\begin{gathered} =6+9+5+6 \\ =26 \end{gathered}$

Then probablitiy is:

$\begin{gathered} =\frac{20}{26} \\ =\frac{10}{13} \end{gathered}$

Then the probability is 10/13

We went from -12 degrees to 27 degrees.

27 - (-12) = 27 + 12 = 39
